First sentence: Changes in the EU's demographic structures, in particular rising life expectancy and falling birth rates, represent a growing risk to the established pay-as-you-go state pension schemes.
Description: "Asset management standards are crucial for building trust between investors and capital market experts. The issue of corporate governance has been thrown into the spotlight by the disastrous collapse of Enron and the implications for the industry. The proposed standards are relevant for the entire fund industry, regulators, providers of pension plans and portfolio managers.".

"This book provides a well-founded basis for development of the content of asset management standards in the UK, the US and the EU. It contains a detailed overview of the current position, outlines planned developments and discusses underlying problems."--BOOK JACKET.
